Exceeded our expectations!

Published on Nov, 2024

We woke up to a rainy day but Martin turned the day into an exceptional tour taking us to Skippers Road for breathtaking views of the mountains and valleys shrouded in mist, giving us lots of history and so many opportunities for and help with taking great photos. It was a spectacular tour and a highlight of our trip.

Excellent photography tour with Martin. Learnt a lot about composition and the art of photography. Took some great photos. Benefited immensely from Martin's local knowledge. Will love to take another tour with Martin and see more of the region.

1st photography tour around Queenstown

Published on Sep, 2024

Martin was amazing - he took me to the parts of Queenstown that not many people know. He was an expert when it comes to composition, leading lines and other forms of photography. He is a great guy to talk too and was very safe when it came to your health and safety during the photo shoot. I would have no problem recommending him to anybody without a doubt a fantastic tour and well worth every $. Thanks Martin fantastic day. Cheers Gary
